Forum Honey Pot Snowboard - Demo 2013

Steal the sweet nectar from the royal lair and feast your eyes on the Forum Honey Pot Snowboard. This season's menu offers up a blend of new ideas to make this the most versatile deck yet. A flat rocker profile provides a loose fun feel outside your feet to the nose and tail and more stability with pop between your feet from the flat zone. The Gnar Core with the Spine of Power is lightweight and has unmatched rebound response for full control and boosting ollies like a boss. Butter and swivel around in the royal jelly with a loose, catch-free feel from the Super Buttercup twin shape, and get radical torsional finesse and snappy response from the Foot Steer Triax laminate. How this ensemble of new savory technology was brewed up is not the only mystery to the Honey Pot; the worker bees did it up this year, boys. *This is a new demo product used only for show. It has never been used but may have slight cosmetic wear from transit.*

Rocker Type

Flat Rocker - This provides a loose playful feel at its contact points but offers a more stable platform between your feet. The stability comes from the flat zone between the feet, as the rocker zones just outside the bindings keep things fun. Also, the kicked up tip and tail keeps those edges “catch free.”

NEW Super Buttercup - Provides greater lift to the contact points in the nose and tail off the snow, giving an even, more loose and catch-free ride, which creates a mellow hull effect - perfect for a day lapping the park and buttering the mountain or when some deep freshies come into play

Sidecut

Twin

Core

Gnar - This first member of the Gnar family is made entirely of high-grade aspen. The lightweight, vertical wood laminates reduce overall board weight while still providing a responsive ride. Grainbelt technology adds critical strength.

Spine of Power - Bringing consistent power for ollies, the Spine of Power is a tip to tail wood stringer that runs the length of the board. The best part about it, it has crazy maneuverability due to the torsional glass around it that creates a dynamic feel.

Laminates

Foot Steer Triax - A new glass layup that offers longitudinal snap and pop with a softer torsional feel, ultimately offering a more playful feel with increased response and flexibility. These factors all come together for enhanced maneuverability.

Base

FreeBase - Waxes easy for speed, emphasizes die-cut graphics, and protects the core from getting worked on run-outs though the parking lot

Edges

Beveled Edges - No need to take that stone to your edges anymore, and forget catching your edge on that rusty rail or that rutted-out transition, this 3-degree slant will give you the confidence to stomp the double kink first try.

Binding Compatibility

2 x 4 Insert Pattern

Specs

Terrain:Freestyle

Freestyle

Freestyle or park snowboards tend to be a bit shorter in length and love terrain parks, rails, jibs, trash cans, tree trunks, riding switch (non-dominant foot forward), wall rides and more. Freestyle boards often feature a true twin shape, and are typically selected by those looking to ride the terrain park. A more versatile variant of a freestyle board is the all-mountain freestyle, which combines the versatility of an all mountain snowboard with the playfulness of a freestyle snowboard.

Ability Level:Intermediate-Advanced

Intermediate-Advanced

The majority of skiers/snowboarders fall into this level, whether you like to carve on groomers or venture into the powder. These skis/snowboards may be somewhat wider than beginner-intermediate skis, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Depending on the type of ski, intermediate-advanced level skis may have full camber, rocker, or some combination of the two.

Rocker Type:Rocker/Flat/Rocker

Rocker/Flat/Rocker

Rocker/Flat/Rocker is another variation on the rocker theme that seeks to provide a little more hard snow edgehold and pop than full rocker while retaining ease of turning and float. Performance is between a fully rockered board and a flat board.

Flex Rating:Medium

Medium

The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
